Followed by a massage with peanut oil and a whirlpool bath.
Don’t fancy it? You could have a nice cup of cider vinegar afterwards.
Do I hear you muttering coffee, tea or even worse strong drink.?Well forget it, you have to give all those up immediately.
And don’t even THINK about eating a tomato as they CAUSE arthritis. In fact most of the things you are eating are bad for you and you should give them up.
Never mind when you’ve swallowed all the supplements you should be taking you won’t have room for food, or any money left to buy it.

All this 'advice' was in a book a kind person sent me.
Are you as fed up as I am about all the advice from books, magazine articles and (well meaning?) people about how to cure arthritis?

    Charlatans, quacks and mountebanks, the lot of 'em. Preying on vulnerable people with their ridiculous ideas. I do, however, give some credence to diet affecting some aspects of arthritis. It's not true for everyone but it is relevant for some.
